I think I'll go with the approach of using the strings till they break, since I like having my sound deaden out and then get a new set of strings... then they sound like god, you know? Just that feeling of going to that meh sound to some brand new strings is real great.
As long as having the old strings on my guitar doesnt' affect the guitar itself, then I'm fine with the tune going dead a little. It's not like I'm playing in front of people or gigging yet, so I should be fine. My ears aren't that picky
